💜💚 Meet Mal! 💚💜

Fearless. Powerful. Determined.

💚 Mal — played by Annemarie

As the daughter of Maleficent, Mal is the fierce and fearless leader of the VKs. Strong-willed and confident, she’s determined to prove herself—but along the way, she discovers that who you choose to be is more important than who you’re expected to become. Her journey of friendship, courage, and self-discovery is at the heart of Disney’s Descendants.

Annemarie is bringing incredible strength, confidence, and heart to this iconic role, and we can’t wait for you to see her command the stage!
